@ all
Here’s a simple example about 80:20 issue.
If some x got 200/250 in written n 50/100 in interview then his total score will be 64(written)+10(interview) which means 74/100. or 259/350.
@all
If it’s wrong, don’t reprimand me. Kindly illustrate with another example. Nothing is happening if u r discussing theoretically. An example makes d picture clear.
But 1 thing’s for sure. (200+50, den total scr =250). This is wrong.
